13 Worst Foundations

No. 7: Almay Clear Complexion Liquid Makeup, $12.49 TotalBeauty.com average reader rating: 6.7*Why: Readers say this foundation doesn’t look natural and will turn orange on their faces without fail. Once they apply the foundation, readers say "it gets darker and very splotchy as the day goes on." This foundation "does absolutely nothing to help clear up acne," despite its claims. One woman says if you're "seeking coverage or healing from a foundation, this is not it." "I probably won't ever use it again, let alone repurchase it."

While it is great to know which products are worse, there will always be different foundation preferences for each individual. Different shades, textures, applications, etc. One thing that can be agreed upon, is poor packaging, which can make or break even the "best" foundations sometimes.
